why would pushing the south pole of two magnets together provide a good model for the fusion of two hydrogen nuclei?(1 point) Responses Some nuclei repel each other, and some attract each other, just like magnets. Some nuclei repel each other, and some attract each other, just like magnets. If the nuclei fused, it would destroy both of them, just like the two magnets would be destroyed. If the nuclei fused, it would destroy both of them, just like the two magnets would be destroyed. The positive charges of the nuclei make it difficult for the nuclei to fuse, just like the repulsion of the two magnets. The positive charges of the nuclei make it difficult for the nuclei to fuse, just like the repulsion of the two magnets. Only negative nuclei can fuse with positive nuclei, just like the north and south poles of magnets. Only negative nuclei can fuse with positive nuclei, just like the north and south poles of magnets.

Answer 1

The most appropriate response is: The positive charges of the nuclei make it difficult for the nuclei to fuse, just like the repulsion of the two magnets.

This is because both the hydrogen nuclei (which are positively charged due to their protons) repel each other due to electrostatic forces, just like the like poles (south-south or north-north) of two magnets repel each other. This reflects the challenge in achieving fusion, where high energy conditions are needed to overcome this repulsion.
